LEN 72 LEN call PT is 72. I have a call for 69 out on the 24th. Was a beauty. Broke out but again the news kinda ruined the run. Didn’t sell. Theta wont ruin it. Held that 62 support very nicely so that’s good. Will monitor throughout the rest of the week. Was going off the double bottom to bull flag. Will alert if losses need to be cut.
LNN trade ideas
C & HI like this stock but we all have different likes and dislikes
Break out would be over prior high and stop is set below handle low or below mid cup depending on tolerance
LEN beat earnings on 6-15, but did not break out.
I am watching this one and do not like the unfilled gap below price. Short percent is reasonable
Triangle with strong R at 66
Be safe!
Has Lennar Laid the Foundation for a Breakout?Homebuilders have emerged as one of the standout industries in the post-Covid world. Plenty of technology names, like Zoom Video Communications , benefited from lockdowns. But it’s also boosted housing in a few ways. First, surveys show millennials finally want to buy single-family suburban homes. Second, interest rates are low. Third, credit-card spending data has shown DIY chains like Home Depot and Lowe’s thriving as most traditional retailers struggle.
Lennar is the No. 2 homebuilder by market cap (behind D.R. Horton ), and the most active in terms of average daily options volume. The company’s earnings and revenue both beat estimates last week. Perhaps more importantly, management had the confidence to reinstitute guidance. That prompted several analysts to raise their price targets.
LEN is in an interesting place technically after rallying sharply between mid-March and mid-May. It’s been consolidating above its 200-day simple moving average (SMA) and today is trying to make a higher low along a trendline starting in early April. Meanwhile resistance has remained around $65.50, resulting in a bullish ascending triangle.
LEN’s 50-day SMA is also moving up toward its 200-day SMA. That creates the potential for a “Golden Cross” within the next 10 sessions. It also had a bullish outside candle on the weekly chart (not shown) last week – a potential sign of “animal spirits in the house.”
It’s usually a good idea to wait for breakouts, but the fundamental argument for homebuilders is strong. Traders may want to enter with last week’s low as risk management and consider adding on a breakout through resistance.
LEN - looks like rates are headed lower?LEN is telling me rates are gonna stay low and perhaps go lower for a while. Last time we were waiting for pullback headed in the end of 2019. The new year has seen nothing but a tear. I'm convinced that FED will need to take action as rates start to test lows. Stock looks great but should pull back to channel before next leg up. 2020 may be very good year for homebuilders. No positions.
LEN - Big Beat, Big Spike, Big Retrace?Lennar had a great quarter and as long as the consumer in the United States stays strong and interest rates stay low, they will continue to do well.
So what gives? Why did it retrace today? Yo be honest, I don’t know but what I DO know is that I would be very interested at the 52-54 level if the price does not break up above the yellow counter trend line. If we get a weekly close above the trend line I will initiate the position and ride it back to ATH’s.
